	We are generating slides for a three colour system (red,green,blue)
and would like to know if there is an easy way to get slitex to produce
non-primary colours (e.g. yellow).  Specifically, is there an easy
(without using the \overlay) method to place characters on different
layers simultaneously, say both the red and the green layers in the 
my yellow colour example?

	We do not want, (nor can we accept), to define other colours,
say yellow in the \colors command.  To do so would generate another colour 
layer that the dvi program would not understand.  We want only to generate 
the three primary colour layers.  Slitex seems to generate "white" characters 
when  no colour command is given by placing those characters on each colour 
layer.  Is there a similar method available that would control the layers
that information is placed on?
